Dear Medina Public School Families:
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has announced that it will extend the free school meals program helping to keep millions of kids fed amid the Corona Virus Pandemic through the 2021-2022 school year.
Students may receive one free breakfast and one free lunch each day. USDA will only reimburse the school for meals, not just milk. A meal must contain at least 3 of the 5 components: Meat/Protein, Fruit, Vegetable, Grain, and Milk. If your student brings cold lunch and takes milk, 25¢ will be charged to their account.
Even though the meals will be free again this school year, we will still be collecting Free and Reduced-Price Income Applications. The October 31 free and reduced numbers are important to our school district in the calculation of foundation aid, e-rate for technology grants, other grants, and Title I funding. If you would normally submit an application for free or reduced meals, or if your income is down this year, please consider filling out the income application.
The application can be found on our website at: https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/795863/2021_22_Application_for_K-12_Benefits.pdf
If you have any questions, please contact the school. We are here to help!
